Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

So Xiao Xiao spoke, and immediately two little guards obediently brought over a ladder, with one setting it up and eagerly holding it for her, "Miss Xiao Xiao, you go up, I’ll hold it from below to ensure you won’t fall."

"Alright, thanks, brother."

Xiao Xiao cheerfully patted the little guard’s shoulder, lifted her skirt, and kicked off her high heels.

The little guard heard Xiao Xiao’s words and quickly blushed, bowing his head and catching a glimpse of her small feet, which made his face even redder.

Xiao Xiao didn’t notice others’ gazes, focused only on the situation outside. Just after climbing two steps on the ladder, she heard a furious shout from behind, "Xiao Xiao, get down here right now!"

Xiao Xiao was startled by the deafening shout, causing her to lose her balance and nearly fall off.

"Ah—"

She could only manage a scream as her foot slipped and her whole body plunged down.

The little guard reacted quickly and caught the falling girl.

As Xiao Xiao fell, she instinctively closed her eyes and tried to grab something, only managing to clutch the guard’s clothes.

Lin Junyang’s temple twitched twice; he initially came out to assess the situation, not expecting the foolish woman would be climbing the wall again.

Remembering last time, if it weren’t for him, the foolish woman would have fallen from the wall. He was really angry and frustrated—she didn’t have any sense of danger, did she? Did she know the Lin Family’s wall was half a meter higher than the Mu Family’s wall?

He saw the guard holding the ladder, eyes fixed intently on her small feet, and Lin Junyang couldn’t hold back his shout any longer.

But he never expected the girl was so easily frightened. He said she should roll down, and she really did roll down—right into another man’s arms.

Lin Junyang, fuming, hurried over, seeing the girl tightly closing her eyes in shock, her long eyelashes still trembling. He wanted to pull her over but saw her small hands clutching the guard’s clothes tightly.

His hand hovering in mid-air grew tense, and he finally spoke coldly, "What? Reluctant to come down?"

Xiao Xiao finally opened her eyes, saw the scene in front of her, her face flushed, and she directly pushed away the guard in front of her. Her body’s instability almost caused her to fall to the ground again.

Lin Junyang finally couldn’t stand it and scooped her into his arms.

Indeed, that seemed more appropriate.

"You foolish woman, can’t you think of any new ideas with your brain? Are you trying to ask for red envelopes from the wall again?" Lin Junyang looked at her smooth small feet, not putting her down, asking while holding her.

"With a joyful occasion like a wedding, aside from wanting some red envelopes, there’s nothing new. Besides, I mostly wanted to check on the enemy’s situation to plan the next steps," Xiao Xiao nestled in Lin Junyang’s arms, fiddling with her fingers, speaking sheepishly.

"With such little ambition, it’s clear you’re not cut out to be a general. With so many guards at home, you could let them handle the enemy reconnaissance. If you want red envelopes, just station yourself at the front door, wouldn’t that be enough? Moreover, if it really comes to it, I’ll give you a package myself. Does a girl really need to climb such a high wall for that? Also, you’d let a man hold a ladder for you; do you know what you’re wearing? Truly foolish to the core."

As Lin Junyang complained, he placed her on the nearby chair and handed her shoes over.

Listening to his ramblings, Xiao Xiao finally blinked her big eyes, "Lin Junyang, are you showing concern for me?"
